Green - Power saving. Cheap.
Blue - Middle ground between Green and Black; mainstream.
Black - Performance. Less cheap.
Red - NAS use. Even less cheap.
Purple - Surveillance.
I'd recommend a Green or Black depending on your budget.
I compared the Blues to the Blacks, and what I like about the Blacks is that they come with a 5 year warranty, while the Blues only have a 2 year warranty.
I Think I might get a WD 3TB Black.
I was more replaying to Yami since I can't quote while at work. I typically don't look at HDD warranties that much as to me if they will die it'll be within a year or so. If not, they'll usually last more than 10 years.

Oh, ok, I did not know that. I just thought I had my mind made up, back to the decision making .... which I am not good at when it comes to pick a product among many choices....
I noticed the Blues have 5400rpm while the Blacks have 7200rpm. Will that be a big and noticeable difference in speed?
